Chapter 40 Warm Times

Demon King Palace

Standing quietly in the center of the hall, he held the pendant in front of him, his brow furrowed, he sighed softly between his snorts, and his fair cheeks were smeared with the concentration of shadows. He walked slowly up the stairs in front of him and sat down on the high couch.

"Your Excellency!" A man in a cloak instantly appeared in the hall, half-kneeling on the ground.

"The day of the Demon King's election has been postponed." Jiu Deyan said lightly, clenching the pendant in his hand, "You go and inform those adults." ”

"Yes."

"Huh? Why? Sai stared blankly at Cullens.

"Jiu De Yan has been responsible for guarding the demon clan since he was born, even if he is a demon king, he has to respect him for three points, it can be said that he is the supreme existence among demons."

"Wow! That's pretty good—" Sai looked adoring.

"Awesome!" Cullens said viciously.

"Why are you always so jealous, you don't have the demeanor of a king at all." Sai pouted and tilted his head to the side.

"Whoever calls you is always like a child, who sees whom and worships whom!" Cullens patted Sai's head, "I don't know what's good about Jode. ”

"Is there anything wrong with him?"

"Sai, can you pick the key points to analyze, just because he is the leader of the demons, and how many wars between humans and demons have been created for thousands of years, you shouldn't have a good impression of him." Cullens rubbed Sai's nose.

Sai came back to his senses, "He-"

"Don't tell me that this has nothing to do with him, think about his location in the demon clan, it's impossible to get rid of the relationship."

"How could it be ······"

"Sober up, my kind Sai, you're like this, how can I get you out of the mire?" Cullens raised an eyebrow.

"But aren't you a typical example····· Sai looked at Cullens.

"Examples? Typical? ”

"Yes, you are not a brutal and cold-blooded person on the surface, and Jiu De Yan may not be as bad as you say..."

Cullens frowned, "I really can't explain it to you!" Cullens slapped his forehead helplessly, "I said Sai, how many charms did you fall for him!" ”

"Enchantment? Did he give me alms? Sai looked at Cullens quizzically.

"The best thing the people of the demon race are at is to charm people's hearts, no one knows the true appearance of Jiu Deqi's face from the beginning to the present, what he sees is a so-called illusion, and no one can remember his appearance, because there will be changes in the next second, and what you see is just the reaction in your heart."

"Is that true of everyone?"

"Of course! Anyone else would have been suspicious of him if he looked like Leo. ”

"Then Norn—no, why did the Judgment of the Brakes mistake Brother Leo for Jode from my memory? Why does his eye look the same as the face I see? ”

Karlens sighed, "You have an anxious thought in your heart, and the Inquisitor has a Blue Devourer contract with you, so of course all your strong thoughts can be reflected in the Inquisitor's heart. ”

"Then you are so powerful, can you see the true appearance of Jiu De Yan?"

"Of course I can, but what I see will be different from you-"

"Is it a real face?"

"No, it's a fog-"

"What's that?"

"Because I won't be easily seduced by him, but he's protected by some kind of power, I can only see a cloud of mist circling around his face."

"Uh-" Sai's face twitched, "why does it sound so horrible·······"

"Since you feel terrible, you don't have any nostalgia for him." Cullens pinched Sai's face.

"It hurts—" Sai pushed Karlens away, "what are you doing!" It hurts—" Sai grinned in pain, rubbing his cheeks.

"Huh!" Cullens smiled faintly.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Remember what I said?" Cullens raised an eyebrow and smiled as he watched the game.

"You've said so much, how do I know which one?" Cy glared at Cullens with disdain.

"I said that if you would be my bride—"

"Don't even think about it!"

"I'm not done yet!" Cullens grabbed Sai's shirt and pulled him over, "You don't want to know about the Holy Maiden?" Cullens leaned on Sai's shoulder and whispered softly into Sai's ear.

Sai hesitated for a moment, his amethyst-colored pupils gleaming.

"If you promise to be my bride, I promise this will be the last election of the Holy Maiden, as I said—"

"You're not going to hold it in the future?" Sai turned.

"Hmm." Cullens nodded.

"What about the sacrifice? Isn't it sacrificial? Sai looked at Cullens's clear eyes suspiciously.

"If I can marry someone I love, I am willing to pay the price of eternal life." Cullens looked sincere.

"Don't make fun of me!" Sai squinted at Cullens.

"Well, if I can get a confidant, I will die without regrets!" Cullens said as he fell to the ground with a sigh.

"Cut! So reluctant to say that? Sai tilted his head and frowned, "If I don't agree, your sacrifice this time-"

"If you don't agree, don't talk about it this time, I will continue to choose the saint in the future, anyway, I have to endure the pain of flesh and skin, it is better to bring someone to accompany me." Cullens looked smug and folded his hands under his head.

"You! Obviously, you can say without choice, why do you do this-"

"Are you willing to let myself suffer?" Cullens rolled over and sat up.

"I-"

"Every time the saint must be chosen is to follow the ritual process, regardless of whether the saint is ultimately sacrificed or not, she must stay in the Hall of Calens, because for the chosen saint, there is no place for them in this world. Their names have been erased from the genealogy, and the Hall of Callens is their home. ”

"Then what are you talking about one last time-"

"If I find someone who really wants it, the dragon will release the shackles of those holy women, and they won't have to stay in the Hall of Calens."

"But I'm a man—"

"You don't have to worry about this, after receiving another soul purification, you can return the girl side of your previous life to the present life."

"What! Are you too ruthless? ”

"No way, unless you're willing to talk to me as a man—"

"Perverted!" Sai stood up in panic.

Cullens let out a snort.

"Laughing at what?"

"You don't even want to marry me, why do you care about so many details? Could it be that I didn't want to make a race—"

"Don't think about it! I'm a normal boy. Sai turned sideways, his face flushed to the base of his ears.

"Huh!" Cullens stood up, "Forget it, you're happy." Cullens walked over to Sai's side, "Finally smiling, Sai······"

Sai said embarrassedly: "My business - don't worry about it - anyway - thank you······"

"I don't bother." Cullens looked at the lake quietly, "I want to know what it's like to make someone happy·····

"Cullens ······" Sai looked at the serious Cullens at the moment, (How can I help you······ )
